I'm making an app where there are two widgets. Both widgets are supposed to get their timelines once per day, as all data for the day is known at midnight. I'm having an issue where when put on a development device, the widgets' timelines work correctly, but do not refresh the next day. I've tried both .atEnd and .after(Date) refresh policies and neither seems to work. Does anyone know why the widget isn't refreshing properly? I'm almost certain that I'm under the daily limit of refreshes (one timeline refresh and ~12 timeline entries per day). Thank you for any help! Dev device iPhone 15 Pro on 17.5.1 (21F90) with Xcode Version 15.4 (15F31d). Below is the timeline code for one of the widgets:
struct EndTimeProvider: TimelineProvider {
var currentHour: Int {
Calendar.current.component(.hour, from: .now)
}
var currentMinute : Int {
Calendar.current.component(.minute, from: .now)
}
var placeholderSixthPeriod: Period {
var endMinute: Int = 0
var endHour: Int = 0
if currentMinute > 60-14 {
endHour = currentHour + 1
endMinute = (currentMinute + 14) % 60
} else {
endHour = currentHour
endMinute = currentMinute + 14
}
return Period(name: "Period 6", start: "00:00", end: "\(endHour):\(endMinute)")
}
func placeholder(in context: Context) -> EndTimeEntry {
return EndTimeEntry(date: .now, displayPeriod: placeholderSixthPeriod, scheduleName: "Regular Day")
}
func getSnapshot(in context: Context, completion: @escaping (EndTimeEntry) -> ()) {
if context.isPreview {
completion(placeholder(in: context))
return
}
let entry = EndTimeEntry(date: .now, displayPeriod: placeholderSixthPeriod, scheduleName: "Regular Day")
completion(entry)
}
